Midterm Blues

It is that time of year again, and we have to stay strong if we are going to make it to the finish line. The middle of the semester is a great time to reflect, and begin to plan ahead. 

If you didn’t know, there is a limit to funding at some schools.  Consequently, the FAFSA application has opened ninety days early. Yes, October 1, 2016, FAFSA applications were opened for the 2017-2018 school year. If you have not already started on it, please do that as soon as possible. If you have any questions go to the website  http://fafsa.ed.gov .

 You must also keep your eye on the ball regarding your current classes:MIDTERMS. To me it seems that school just started, but we are officially at the half way mark. So don’t give up hope now! Push on! Be motivated to complete assignments, and most importantly show up to class.! The weather is indeed changing, however that does not mean not to come to class because its too cold. Remember someone is paying for you to be here.! Let's finish the week strong because next week we will “GET GEEKED”, It is homecoming week!

One way to stay encouraged is to think about about the future.  You might want to check out the Alumni page on the LLP website.  It features English majors who have graduated, and went off into the world to do big things.  This month's feature is State Representative LaDawn Jones!

Be on the lookout for our interview with one of our awesome professors in the LLP department. Be sure to check our Twitter, and Facebook throughout the week for motivating words, event updates, and other things.

Keep moving!
